Summary:

Now On Demand.

As we continue to experience unprecedented market volatility, your clients may want to preserve capital, and you may want your clients to stay invested in the market. Harbor believes that volatility is part of the “new” new normal and may continue for a prolonged period. Additionally, Robeco is monitoring this prolonged period of volatility and will join the Harbor investment team to share insights and performance expectations around low volatility/conservative equity investing during these times.

Following a long period of relative stability, Harbor can prepare you with tools and sound rationale for navigating through these periods when they happen – by helping you avoid problematic behavioral biases. Join our speakers for a robust discussion and actionable insights that may help you implement strategies to manage ongoing periods of market volatility for your clients.
